My mistake, I thought my labyrinth of a question gave the impression that I
was adding my custom gradle task to the classpath of something else. In my
gradle task, I add the custom task class to the classpath of the ant task as
I define it in my build script with the classpath field in the taskdef()
map. In case that came out wrong, its this:
project.ant{
taskdef(name: "wsejbdeploy", classname:
"com.ibm.websphere.ant.tasks.WsEjbDeploy", classpath:
project.configurations.wsanttasks.asPath)
wsejbdeploy(...
Where wsanttasks is a configuration I've defined that refers to the jar
containing WsEjbDeploy and my new jar:
project.dependencies{
wsanttasks module("com.ibm.websphere:runtime:6.1.0"){
dependencies "org.jerod:EjbDeployClasses:1.0"
}
}
But this doesn't get it done. Gradle gets into the task just fine, but
within the ant task there are a lot of steps and one of them tries to use a
class it can't find. Again, if I drop that jar in my jdk directory that I
run gradle from, it picks up the files and runs smoothly.
Sorry for the confusion.
